Track inventory: transactions, items and month-end

How the Inventory page works: transactions posted to your Inventory account, item-level stock, costing methods and month-end closing stock.

beginner· 2 views· Updated 7/24/2026

Open More Tools → Inventory (route /inventory). The page has three tabs:

  • Transactions: every journal posted to your Inventory GL account (default 1200), each with a breakdown status and a Provide Breakdown action.
  • Items: your item-level stock register with quantities, unit costs and valuation.
  • Month-End: enter closing stock to drive the COGS calculation; past entries can be edited or deleted.

Stat cards at the top show Inventory Value (GL), COGS (Period), Transactions and Pending Breakdowns.

You can choose your costing method at the top of the page: Weighted Average Cost (WAC), FIFO (oldest stock sold first) or LIFO (newest sold first).

Step-by-step

  1. 1
    Open Inventory

    Sidebar → More ToolsInventory (in the Operations group).

  2. 2
    Review transactions

    The Transactions tab lists everything posted to the Inventory GL for the selected period. Rows without an item breakdown show a Provide Breakdown button.

  3. 3
    Check your items

    The Items tab shows each product's quantity on hand, unit cost and total value.

  4. 4
    Close the month

    On Month-End, enter your physical closing stock value. AkountFly computes COGS as Opening + Purchases − Closing.

    You can edit or delete a closing entry later: the linked adjustment journal is corrected automatically.
